I agree.

Can someone give me an idea of the data volume for both FTP and WWW data?  The 
main difficulty which I can see is that there are several US sites which might 
need to be mirrored.  

I've talked to our sysadmin guys who say we could set up a mirror without too much 
work as we're already mirroring several other (astronomy) sites.  We'd need ftp 
access to the WWW files to do this, either anonymously or via a named account on 
the relevant machine(s).

Non-anonymous ftp distribution of EPICS source is more of a problem though - I'd 
be happier doing it anonymously with encrypted data.
